from which the most gifted individual
might well shrink-Miss Dillon acquitted
herself in "a manner which adds fresh
laurels to her fame as an elocutionist and
actress. We use the word ACTRESS" after
due deliheratiOn, for certainly no small
degree of histriOnic art is essential 10 make

Horace Lewis as Monte Cristo."

The announcement that Mr.. Horace
Lewis will appear at the Grand Opera
House the first three days of the coming
week, has stirred upa good deal ofcuriosi-
ty and excitement among our theatre going
people, which was intensified when 1t be-
came known that Monte Cristo' would
be the play on one or two evenings. AS
Edmund Dantes" and Count de Monte
Cristo'' Mr.. Lewis has carved out for
himself an enviable record. The Louis
vile Commercial says of him in this role:
Horace Lewis, before the curtain had
fallen for the first time, made such a con-
quest of his hearers that he was given an
ovation whenever he enteted. and all the
cast gave a most satisfactory representation
of their parts. The scenery and costumes
were very praisewQrthy."

The First Ward school.

To the Editor Of the Register.
SIE:-ln reply to the expert who was
appointed by the School Board to examine
into the condition and safety of the First
Ward school building, | desire to say that
| built the brick work of the building In
the year 1863. The great hail storm, oc-
curing in June of that year, threw down
the west wall of the building and cracked
the other walls somewhat, but not TO an
extent to make them dangerous. The
west wall and northwest corner settled the
first and second years after the building
was erected. l examined the cracks at
the time and stated TO Mr.. \. j. Sweeney
that the building would not
settle any more If sufficiently
stayed with iron rods. Hav-
ing called the attention of the Board TO it,
l thought it my duty to make this state
ment to the public. Hearing that the
building was dangerous and that the Board
suspended the school, i thought | would
90 up and examine the walls. | did this
yesterday and found them in the sam
condition as they were in 1869 and 1870,
eighteen years ago. am of the same
now that | was theu-that the
building is safe. If the walls are not thick
enough to bear the weight put upon them,
the building would have fallen years ago.

INCENDIARIsM CALLED FUN.
Two Men Burn Salvation Army Bar
racks and Fire Church.

KINGSTON, ONT, oct. 25.--Two young
men stood in the police dock this morning
and pleaded guilty to setting fire to the Sal
vation Army barracks and Third Methodist
church at an early hour. The police officers
cleverly captured them. They had fired
the barracks, and during the excitement
went to the church, tore up the pulpit car
pet and found 1t unignitable and then going
to the basement, fired lot of books along
side a partition. Policemen discovered
the blaze, put it out and
hid. So the men, wondering at
a second alarm not being given, went to the
church to ascertain the cause, and were ar
rested. Both later confessed their guilt and
laid the blame upon liquor. The persons
are Alexander Newman, aged 20, and Will
liam Andrew, aged 80. They also say that
the act was done from. pure deviltry. The
magistrate will sentence them tomorrow.
Newman is suspected of firing other build
ings. For the past week incendiary fires
have been numerous. Once before the Sal
vation barracks were destroyed, and New
man was strongly suspected of being the
fire bug. The Army folks by this last fire
suffer loss of s., 900.

FRANCES PARLIAMENT.
M. Rouvier Asks Heavy Extraordi-
nary Army and Navy Credit.

PARIS, Oct 25--The legislative cham
bers reassembled to-day. In the Chamber
OF Deputies, M. Rouvier, Prime Minister
and Minister of Finance, introduced bill
providing for an extraordinary army and
navy credit of 100,000,0O0 He also intro
duced bill for the conversion of A. per
cent. rentes into per cent rentes
Gen. Ferron, Minister of War, submitted
bill for special corps of infantry and
artillery for mountain service.
M. Flourens, Minister for Foreign
Affairs, submitted the Anglo-French con
vention relative 10 the Suez canal and New
Hebrides Islands.
NJ. de Ornana Q}onapartist moved that a
committee be appointed to inquire into the
Caffarel- W ilson legion of honor decoration
scandals, and demanded urgency for his
motion. Prime Minister Rouvier opposed
the granting Of urgency. He said that the
scandals We're being dealt with in the course
of law, and the passage of urgency wonld
create confusion of jurisdiction. The mo-
tion for urgency was carried, however, by a
vote of 379 TO l55.
The Republican Electoral Committee of
Tours has asked NJ. Wilson whether he
took advantage of his residence at the
Elysees 90 avoid the payment of taxes.
whether he made use of the Presidential
autograph stamp for private purposes, and
whether he promised favors in return for
personal services 1t is expected that Nj.
Wilson will refuse to speak to the electors
except as a deputy, and that he will with
draw from the political field IF the meet
ing of Republicans about to be held at
Tours approves the action Of the COM
